Given that he has joined Inter from arch-rivals AC Milan, there is no doubt that the Turkey international will have lost respect in the vision of many fans of the Rossoneri.
He was a star performer for Milan last season, making 33 Serie A appearances as they finished second in the table and qualified for the Champions League.
Even though the Rossoneri finished last season as runners-up in Serie A, there was a gulf in matriculation between them and Inter as they finished 12 points overdue their stormy rivals.
They will moreover not be among the favourites to win silverware next season, with most people expecting Inter to compete but versus a rejuvenated Juventus side.
The Nerazzurri will moreover be looking to make an impact in the Champions League next season, a competition that they have not won since 2010.
Now in the prime of his powers, Çalhanoglu will be looking to help Inter win major honours next season.
Meanwhile, flipside player that has been linked with a move to Inter is PSV Eindhoven star Denzel Dumfries.
The right-back has been a revelation for Netherlands in the European Championships, and he could be set for an exit from PSV superiority of the new season.
